CF doesn't work after forcing deck drivers

Post by thasu »

Corrupted OW memory message appears in the console when I plug one of my decks. After forcing the driver by adding it to the config.mk and using Make Debug to compile, it didn't boot properly. By adding DEBUG=1 in config.mk the deck started to work but there were some issues. When I give set_hoverpoint, it didn't fly and started to flash 2 red LEDs, but the data logging python code run properly.

A corrupt memory error means that the memory has not been programmed and only firmware compiled in debug mode can use it (since firmware in release mode will disable all deck if it sees one with a programmed memory). So the fact that you need to set DEBUG=1 is normal.

The two red leds seems to be an unrelated problem but to help for that it would be useful to know what deck and what version of the firmware you are running.

What error are you guys talking about? I suppose that now it should work well.
